How did you stop it, and how do you know it didn't stop?

The output you included from bucardo status shows that the last time Bucardo
tried to sync, it did so successfully. That doesn't mean Bucardo is running.

This tells you why it didn't start. Bucardo keeps the process ID of its master
process in a file, and if that file exists when it is asked to start, it will
refuse, thinking Bucardo might be running already.

Commit 65b740874be13166c7257ce0353cb525e18b64b8 changes that behavior, so if
you upgrade to the very latest code, it should as you expect even when the
file exists, provided the PID inside the file doesn't refer to an existing
process.
